Skoda Slavia And Skoda Kushaq Style Variants Get The 10-inch Touchscreen Infotainment Again

The Czech automaker has also replaced the alloy wheels on the Style variant of the Skoda Kushaq

• The bigger 10-inch touchscreen system was offered when the Slavia and Kushaq made their market debut but rolled back due to supply chain issues.

• It is only available with the top-spec Style variants of both the Skoda Slavia and Kushaq.

• Both of these models also get electrically adjustable front seats and illuminated footwell.

• The 10-inch touchscreen system is already available with the Monte Carlo edition of the Skoda Kuhshaq.

• Both Slavia and Kushaq's prices start at Rs 10.89 lakh (ex-showroom pan India).

The Skoda Slavia and Skoda Kushaq have now regained the 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which was temporarily unavailable due to a shortage of semiconductor chips. This infotainment system is available in the top-spec Style variants of both models. However, it's worth noting that the larger touchscreen system was already being offered with the Monte Carlo edition of the Kushaq.

Skoda has recently revised the price list of both cars, also reducing their prices for a limited period of time. Click here to see variant-wise revised prices.

However, it has now been replaced by a simpler-looking set of silver alloy wheels of the same size.

Both engines can be had with a 6-speed manual transmission as standard, but the former comes with the optional 6-speed automatic transmission and the latter gets the 7-speed dual clutch transmission (DCT).
